An Audience of One
This week I'm doing something really radical. Something I've been considering for at least three years - maybe longer.
I decided to ask one opinion and go with it - my husband's. I told him, when we got into the car to drive to Dallas, that I wanted to talk to him about something I'd been considering for years and he said, 'that makes me really nervous.'
Not to fret - we talked through it - and he gave me the go-ahead. I think he's a little nervous about it, but he told me he loves me, no matter what, and if I feel strongly about it I should do it.
It's in keeping with everything I believe, what I value, what I think is and is not important in this life. I'm a little nervous about it too, but don't think I will regret it.
Tomorrow morning I'm driving into Dallas, will be gone much of the day, and when I get home I'll come back and tell everyone what it was, where I went, and how it turned out. No hints, at all, to anyone, but I think everyone who knows me will be surprised...
